There is a lack of research, the access to evidence-based methods is limited, and traditional educational methodological approaches are usually ineffective (Diržytė, Mikulėnaitė & Kalvaitis, 2016; Buivydaitė, Newman & Prasauskienė, 2017).One of the earliest signs of ASD is failure to develop language and social communication (Mody & Bellieveau, 2013; Arunachalam & Luyster 2016; etc.). Meta-analyses conducted by foreign researchers show that B.F. Skinner’s (1957) verbal behaviour analysis is one of the evidence-based effective methods used for developing language in children with ASD (McPherson et al., 1984; Dymond et al. 2006; Sautter & LeBlanc, 2006; Devine & Petursdottir, 2017). A rapid increase in the prevalence of ASD brings the researchers’ attention to the possibilities of applying this method, however, there are still some areas in verbal behaviour approach remaining, which lack research. Scientific studies in these areas would likely open effective ways for developing language in children with ASD (Devine & Petursdottir, 2017). The researchers (Buivydaitė, Newman & Prasauskienė, 2017) have conducted a review of scientific articles on ASD in the Baltic states (including Lithuania), and the findings of it confirm the lack of such research. In this study, a single-subject educational experiment was used, during which a joint stimulus control model was applied for developing language in children with ASD, with the main focus being on receptive language acquisition. The object of joint stimulus control is the development of a symmetrical (bi-directional) word-object relation and independent, verbally maintained generalisation with unlearned stimuli. The results of the experiment show that a joint stimulus control model can be applied as an effective mechanism to develop language in children with ASD. In the presence of non-verbal stimuli and rehearsing the names of the stimuli overtly or covertly, the joint stimulus control emerges and, in this way, the complex receptive language perception in children with ASD is developed within the context of social interaction. The participants of this experiment were able to emit correct responses with the novel sets of stimuli and were able to apply this mechanism without prompts not only in teaching sessions, but also in other social situations. Lietuvos pedagogai vis dar nepasiruošę ugdyti autizmo spektro sutrikimų (toliau ASS) turinčius vaikus, trūksta tyrimų, moksliškai pagrįstų metodikų prieinamumas yra ribotas, o tradicinės metodinės prieigos dažnai būna neveiksmingos (Diržytė, Mikulėnaitė ir Kalvaitis, 2016; Buivydaitė, Newman ir Prasauskienė, 2017).Vienas pagrindinių ASS požymių yra kalbos ir socialinės komunikacijos sutrikimas (Mody ir Bellieveau, 2013; Arunachalam ir Luyster 2016 ir kt.).

A content analysis of scientific journals in an area illuminates its main trends and development. This work seeks to analyse basic trademarks of educational rehabilitation practice in countries from Central and Eastern Europe, specifically 15 post-socialist countries which have, during the 1990s, seen substantial political and social changes. This research includes 4 scientific journals in which educational rehabilitation scientists have published most of the existing scientific work during the period from 2008 to 2016. These are: Croatian Review of Rehabilitation Research, Journal of Special Education and Rehabilitation, Research in Developmental Disabilities and Special Education. This research is based on an analysis of 273 published abstracts, by means of quantitative content analysis. \u0000The main hypothesis was that educational rehabilitation science in European post-socialist countries has recognisable content and method, with the primary purpose of developing scientifically verified interventions. These contribute to the promotion of developmental, educational and social status for people with various difficulties. Such a hypothesis has been partially confirmed. It was established that there is recognisable content and method, but the predominance of scientifically verified interventions has not been established. The science of educational rehabilitation is primarily characterised by themes of specific abilities of a certain group of people with disabilities. This includes an analysis of the efficiency of various interventative methods being present in one third of the publications. In conclusion, the results of this research indicate the need for further improvement of scientific activities within the science of educational rehabilitation in Central and Eastern Europe, both in diversity of the scientific methodology and regarding a focus on the interventions themselves (including evaluation, but also the theoretical basis regarding their meaningfulness).
